Chocolate Brownies

“Brownies” Saying that name makes me happy. I love brownies, I love each letter of the word “Brownies”. If I see any recipes named as Brownies. I will stare at that at least for a few minutes (From this you get to know how much I love brownies).. My love for brownies had made me post quite a few brownie recipe in this blog. But among all those brownies this has become my latest favorite.

I actually halved the original recipe. But i have written both the measurements. So if you want, you could double or even triple the recipe. I beg you to give this a try. It was so gooey in the middle and crusty in the top with a little bit of creamy milk chocolate bites. I know this sounds like HEAVEN. Please give it a try and let me know what you think.

This is one is my Favorite Domestic Goddess Nigella’s recipe. This recipe is from her latest show “Nigella’s Kitchen”. I watched this video last week and believe it or not I made it the next day itself. And today I made it again for my friends.

Dear Aarthi,
Thank you for your lovely note on my blog! It's a pleasure to have you stop by and try some gluten-free recipes 🙂 These brownies look AMAZING!!! I would love to try a gluten-free version of these...I would just sub the regular flour with rice/tapioca/sorghum flour and I'm sure they'll be delicious!!! Thanks for sharing.
All the best,
Emily xo

A pretty different kind of brownie, it looks great, so I will try Nigella's recipe, I use the old fashioned recipe were you melt the chocolate with the butter first.

@Annie you should not add eggs when the mixture is in flame,you should take it out of the flame and let it cool for 2-3 min.then add in your eggs so it wont scramble...Hope you got it..

Hi Aarthi, I am planning to do this Everyday brownies tomorrow. I have 2 doubts.
1) CAN I SUBSTITUTE OIL IN THE PLACE OF BUTTER. If so, how much oil should I add?
2)Will all other ingredient measurements remain the same if I add butter?
Please reply at the earliest. Bye..... UmaRaghu/Poland
